Jeez the covers around here just having big engraved letters something like "Brunswick Waterworks 1953" or whatever on them. That's about it.

Art should snick itself in to more everyday places like this.

Probably because morons would stand in the middle of the street admiring the artwork.

I do agree with this though:

This is true. Then again, could be a nifty little trick to thin the herd, eh?

Any thinning is good herding, neh?

Then why is the number of people who drive with cellphones on the increase?

I don't mind the people on cellphones so much, mostly because they aren't speeding.
